Hand Made Encouragement or Secret Sister Card
Details
Would you like to encourage someone, or perhaps encourage your Secret Sister? Do you need a unique card to reveal who you are to your secret sister? I came up with this greeting card for MY Secret Sister. It's fun to bless the one you are praying for with different types of cards, and this one, in tones of pink, green and white along with the quilled paper flowers and the daisy floral pattern on the raised, scalloped ovals, is very feminine. The hand quilled flowers are what make the card so unique, and white and pink flowers, numerous tiny roses and hand curled paper greenery make for a lovely "bouquet" along the top and two corners of the front. There is a quilled heart on the front in two tones of pink, and a quote just under it which says "The heart is happiest when it beats for others" is precious and meaningful to someone you have been praying for, and is one of my favorites. There are also numerous green "jewels" on the front, some as centers to the quilled flowers, and two matching diamond-shaped jewels accenting the central raised ovals that carry the main greeting.
Philippians 4:8 is the inside Bible verse; "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." The words on the inside can reflect what you want to say, or you can use the ones I used; "I'm praying that in the coming year the Lord would be near you in a special way. May you feel his presence who is ever faithful and may you know that He is always with you - always caring for you - always in control." The tiny heart punch-outs and scalloping on the inside paper is a technique I like to use on most of my cards, and gives it a frilly, somewhat lacy look. The heart-theme is complemented by a heart made in the daisy paper on the inside, as well as with a pink puffy heart on the back. The back also has my standard "Handmade with love" greeting with an addition of the sentiment "I have really enjoyed being your secret sister!". This may be omitted if you are not using the card for a secret sister. Also, if you are into ribbon, a pink taffeta ribbon can be added to the top of the card as shown in the photos, but it can also be left off if desired.
I've also included a pretty little insert for those who are revealing who they are to their secret sister, which says "Surprise!! These many months I may have fooled you while we've played this Secret Sister Game, but now it seems the time has come to reveal to you my name! So after many prayers and thoughts and all this "secret" fun, it's time to tell you that, I, so-and-so (your name) am the one!" This insert has a border of pink and white gingham as well as a soft green background paper that is scalloped along the edges, matching the colors of the actual greeting card.
So if you want a hand-crafted and unique encouraging greeting card, whether or not it's for a secret sister, but don't have the time to create one, look no further. Please contact me if you have any questions or if you would like the card to have different words than shown.

Thank you for choosing All The Wright Stuff! My aim is to provide customers with exceptional value and customer service. Please let me know how I am doing :)
Payment:
I accept PayPal and most recently, PayPal Express, at this time. PayPal Express is very handy, fast and with fewer steps involved which is great for all concerned. And, even if you do not want or have a PayPal account you can still use PayPal to pay via credit card. If you are having trouble making a payment, please contact me. If payment has not been received within 72 hours the item(s) will be re-listed unless other arrangements have been made.
Shipping:
I ship first class within 1-3 business days from receipt of payment, unless it is a custom order. Your purchase will be packed with the utmost of care and I do try to recycle and reuse as much as I can. The item(s) will be shipped via USPS within the United States or to Canada, unless you contact me with your preferred shipping provider.
If you are in another country, and would like to purchase an item, or items, from my shop, contact me, and I will calculate postage for you. If you are willing to pay the postage I calculate, I will add shipping to your country on the item(s) you wish to purchase. Most recently I have shipped to the United Kingdom. The package arrived in nine days, just to give you an idea of timing.
Custom Orders:
If there is an item you see in my shop that you would like in another color, etc, contact me. I welcome custom orders. If I can make what you want with supplies I have on hand, I will not require a deposit. I will e-mail you pictures of the item(s) when it is done, and will list it if you like it. It will be shipped after you pay.
I love creating new items as well, so feel free to contact me with your request. If I will have to purchase supplies to make what you want, then I will need a deposit for the cost of supplies. You will pay the rest of the agreed amount once the item is completed, you have approved the pictures, and I have posted it. If for some reason beyond my control I am unable to finish your order, any deposit you have made will certainly be refunded.
Custom orders ship within 7-14 business days, depending upon how much time is involved in making it. A different color of similar items I have in stock takes much less time than an original design. If the item is large, heavy or bulky I may need to send it Parcel Post. I will calculate the postage for you before shipping it. If you are willing to pay the postage I calculate, I will add shipping to the item(s). Do you need something right away? Contact me to discuss putting priority on your order and shipping it via a quicker method.

Please contact me if you need to return an item. If we agree that an item needs to be returned, I accept returns within 15 days from receipt as long as the item is unused and in it's original condition. Your refund will be in the amount of the purchase price, and this does not include shipping cost. The original sale price, minus shipping, will be credited. All sales are final on special orders.
Please feel free to contact me if there is any problem with your order and I will try to make it right. I desire that you, the customer, be completely satisfied with your purchase. You can contact me about any questions you may have.
It's a pleasure serving you. Happy customers make me happy!
Thank you so much, and stop in again soon.
Reviews
I cannot recommend Wendy and her family highly enough! Wendy's tatted items look beautiful in the photos, but my earrings that came which she custom made to my size requirement are just gorgeous! I will enjoy wearing this lightweight and lovely design over and over, I'm sure. Just exquisite work and quality!
My wooden spatula made by David, Wendy's 13-year-old son, is fantastic! It has a thicker handle than some of my spatulas and that makes it so much easier to hold and grip with my stiff arthritic hand...what a blessing! And the quality is top-notch as well. Obviously is quite committed to providing quality designs, just like his mother.
My many communications with Wendy regarding my order prior to purchase and then throughout purchase and receipt were exceptionally pleasant! It is obvious the Wright Family are interested in taking good care of their customers, as well as providing beautifully crafted items of the highest quality. I could not be happier and hope to order more "stuff" from the Wrights in the future!
Wendy, I LOVE the earrings. Can't wait to wear them. Thanks so much!
This handmade wooden spatula is all that I had hoped for. It's both lovely and functional. The grain is beautiful and the unique labor intensive sanding process makes for a satiny smooth surface. I like the extra touch of the leather hanging loop. I just used it for the first to saute garlic and olive oil and the design fits beautifully in my hand. Thank you for a special product, exceptional customer service, careful packaging and fast shipping.
